The Edge: Solo Exhibition in RHA Ashford Gallery

My upcoming Solo exhibition will run from July 08, 2016 - August 21, 2016 in the RHA Ashford Gallery.

This body of new work explores the Dublin north side
suburbs from Baldoyle to Howth, the area where I grew up and returned
to after 20 years, to bring up my own family. The Edge refers
to the edge of town, the edge of land where it meets the sea, and the
edge where childhood meets adulthood, depicted in landscapes, seascapes,
and portraits of teenagers and young people who are growing up in these environs.

Aug 22, 2012

A Piano in the Kitchen and other stories.This solo exhibition of Una Sealy's paintings and drawings takes place in Draiocht, Blanchardstown Dublin, from 23 November 2012

This
workshop with Una Sealy ARHA will focus on working from a life model with a sustained three
day pose, to enable a reasonably large finished painting to be
executed. The process of painting from start to finish will be studied,
from coloured grounds, through composition, drawing, anatomy, colour
mixing, and painting technique.

The
materials used will be oil or acrylic, and the workshop will suit those
with experience in life drawing who would like to further develop their
painting skills.
